SHORTAGE OF WATER
Waltsburg Council Wreses With
a Difficult Problrra.
(Journal SpecialService.)
"WAITSBtRG. Wash Oct. 21.-Great
local Interest is takciin the water ques
tion here. The cityBufferH greatly from
a shortage of watr in the summer sea
son and recently the city has made an
effort to suppl the needs by boring a
well. A dlsttaitt-e of 26Tj feet was reached
and the flowof water whs such thnt it
became difficult to prosecute the work
further. ne Well docs not furnish h
eupj'ly sufficient for the entire city ami
now th city officers urc. deliberating
whether to abandon "the- movrment dr
sink arnew shaftf There Is opposition to
the second course as more than $1000 has
alreAdy been spent on the: well.
aitsburg has long been living In the
face of a water shortage. 1 For several
ears during the summer a steam pump
has been employed to keep the reservoir,
above the city filled. This water is taken
from the Touchet river, which acts as a
sewer for Dayton, ten miles above, and it
is not considered wholesome. During the
winter there is enough water from th"
springs to furnish all required for house
hold purposes. It took three weeks to
bore the well recently sunk. Water was
struck a short distance down, but mid
way had disappeared altogether.

"There wus some e ldence yesterday
that Armour, who has heretofore had the
December wheat sold and the i'fay bought,
was changing the spreak back. One set
of Armour houses bought December and
another sold May. The effect was to
give the December wheat shorts a scare
and to narrow up the wy premium over
December to 1 ' cents. It was 2 cents at

Stocks Sluggish.
NEW YOKK, Oct. 21. The Chronicle
says :
"Although bulls are disappointed at the
sluggishness of the market, conservative
sentiment continues to favor the long side
and tile purchase of moderate priced
storks. Argument is made that prices
had a rebound of 10 points or more on
the eusing up of money and settlement of
the coal strike. A reaction from thia vio
lent advance was Inevitable and it was
believed nearly to have run Its course.
If this theory is correct, stocks should

''BIG THREE" MAKE
PENDLETON STOCK,
MARKET LIVELY.
FENDLETON, Or., Oct. 20. The famous
"Big Three" are la Pendleton and they
are making things lively in the stock
market This Is one of the most active
seasons in stock circles for a number of
years. Large sales are being made, good
prices are being paid and shipping is go
ing on aa rapidly as cars can be obtained.
Cattle'are arriving from the Interior daily
and every night sees several carloads
leave for the Bound country. Horses and
hogs are also on the list and owners of
these are practically naming their prices.
One concern alone paid out $35,000 In cash
at Swearinger Bros.' place one evening
last week.
The three biggest buyers here, and they
nte known as the "Big Three," each rep
resenting large Sound concerns, are busy
as bees. Competition, is - sharp : between
them. They practically mk Pendleton
their home during the stock-buying; sea
son, and in spite of the fact that each
is trying to catoh the other napping:, they
have become boon companions, when off
of duty, and perpetrate many jokes upon
one another. They all agree upon one
thing, however, and that Is that Pendie-
Ion Is the best place, at which to buy
stock in the Pacific Northwest. It is a
central point, both as to production and
shipment. And then, the best stock in the
whole country are found at Pendleton
and In the avenues that reach Pendleton.
Umatilla alone supplies an astonishing
number of head of cattle, horses and
hogs.
It Is estimated that cattle alone are
shipped from this point to the value of
$000,000. Besides this horses and hogs to a
large number and value are shipped.
Then sheep and wool added to these
would make the figures seem fabulous.
The "Bis; Three" alone have paid out
nearly $2o0i000 for -stock in this county
since May T, and "their purchases prior- tor
that time were large. These gentlemen
consist of James C, Lonergan, represent
ing tnd Pacific Meat Company, of Taco
ma: L. Stubblefleld, representing Cars
tens Bros., of Seattle, and P. B. Ball, rep
resenting Frye-Bruhn Co., of Seattle.

year and knows every prominent stock
man la Eastern Oregon. Since May 1,
'he baa purchased In Umatilla County
1,000 beef cattle, 120 horses and (00 bogs.
The cattle cost him an average of Vf a
head, which would aggregate $30,000; the
horses cost him aa average of $100 a
head and this would aggregate $13,000,
while th hogs at C cents bulk would ag
gregate about $7200, making the total
$9,200. Many of these horses are used as
draft and pack horses. While some of
them are used aa single drivers. This
Arm lurahased the farhous Swearinger

with the stockmen in this field for too
past three rears and has been with his
present company for about a year. Since
May 1, he has purchased and shipped
from Pendleton in round numbers, 1600

panlons In the picture, and competitors
in the field, he has other shipments ready
and will continue to buy and ship from
Pendleton until the season closes.
This shows that these gentlemen have
bought and shipped from Pendleton since
May 1, a total of $240,200 worth of stock.
As soon aa the season for shipping what
are called the grass cattle feeding will

OLD FORM GOES
General Conference of Orthodox
Quakers at Last Session.
INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 21. The general
conference of Orthodox Quakers, which
began in this city today, marks an epoch
in the history of the famous sect. It
marks the passing away of the old form
of control of the denomination and the
birth of a new religious body having a
central authority and combined agencies
for work. In other words, the members
of the church have come to a full recog
nition of the fact -that new methods of a
progressive sort are absolutely necessary
if the denomination is to retain its in
duence and membership. In future the
church affairs will be managed along the
lines employed by the Methodists, Pres
bytertans and other denominations. In
stead, of the customary t-early meetings
there will be a general national confer
ence once in five years to deal with all
the affairs of the church. It is probable
that the conference will adopt a declara
tlon of faith. A new catechism Is con
templated and arrangements will be
made, it la understood, for the establish
ing of a publishing house. The confer
ence will undertake, also, to provide all
the meetings represented , with active
